BA1 can only have one ASIO device defined per core, but, if that device has a digital and an analogue input, both can be active at the same time. Some ASIO sound cards provide switching or mixing capabilities within them, but even if they don't both inputs can be defined, so long as only one is used at a time. I have a digital input via my playout software which comes in via Virtual Audio Cable, and I also have a phono preamp connected directly to the ASIO analogue inputs. If I want to play digital music, it uses VAC. If I play a record, it uses the soundcard input. Of course, there is a risk that you can play both at the same time.
There is certainly no problem running any Breakaway products on Windows 10 that I am aware of. I have BA1 running without a whimper, but I don't have the other products. I will refer it to one of the development team for more answers.
Why would you use HD? The FM core has the pre-emphasis capability, plus pilot tone, plus, plus, plus. You are trying to make a different protocol "look" like FM.

The VST support is for 32 bit executables actually, instead of 64 bit executables. The audio path for the VST support itself is 32 bit float. =)
[/quote]Yeah, sorry I led you all astray there. I knew that it couldn't do 64. I just forgot that the next step down is 32, not 16. Duh!
"so placing it after Stereo Tool gives it harsh clipping"
It's unclear from your post whether you are using Breakaway or Stereo Tool. You know that they are different, right?
BA1 only uses 16 bit VST anyway. Somewhere there is an explanation as to why, so it should be better to use the native code that Leif added in 3.19.42.
Hi vpnmaster. I am not of the correct answer, so I am seeking a response from others in the support team. However, as I understand it, the more bits, the higher the resolution, but it may be a waste of time if the tx can't cope or if it introduces distortion.
Hope to have an answer for you soon.
Have you tried dropping the rate to see if it stabilises (as suggested before)?
Are there any buffer sizes that you can tweak? It sounds like it needs larger buffers so that the higher rate can fill up more.
Try streaming it directly to a local PC. If that works, the problem is downstream with your ISP, server, time-slicing, buffering etc.Drop the rate down on the 320 feed to see if it stabilises at 128 or 256ks. That will tend to eliminate cables and connections, then we can drill down on the server.
OK. You can safely run the TX end as a service, because you can also run BARemote at the transmitter site by using the local address 127.0.0.1:8200. This will let you control it if you are physically at the TX site, or you can do the same at the studio end by using BARemote with the endpoint (tx) IP address.
Ah! It's becoming clearer. Teamviewer actually connects via their servers, so there is no direct link, whereas your STL is a direct connection, as is BA Remote. It has the additional benefit of being built specifically for the job, so uses very little CPU or network bandwidth. Teamviewer, in particular, is very network intensive, because all its traffic is routed from you – their server – the endpoint (and return).
If you have BA1 running as a service at the transmitter, and you know the IP address of the computer running it, you should be able to connect simply by adding that IP plus colon (:) plus the port address 8200 (example 192.168.10.1:8200) to the BA Remote interface.
Note that you can control a great deal of the options, but, if you need to change the actual configuration (example – change the input configuration for the soundcard , you will probably have to remove the service, change the configuration and restart the service.
If the transmitter end has an IP address, you should be able to connect. However, I am baffled by your comment that it has no internet access, yet you are streaming.
Glad that you got it going. Care to share for others who might also hit the same wall?
Leif has promised some more demo videos, as they work so much better than pages and pages of fine print.
